Star Wars: The Force Awakens Wins the Kid’s Choice Award for Favorite Movie!
Blake Shelton hosted the 2016 Kids’ Choice Awards that took place yesterday in L.A. Star Wars: The Force Awakens won the award for Favorite Movie in direct competition with movies like Avengers, Jurassic World and The Hunger Games.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens might not have won any Oscars (which voter’s average age is 63), but it won the younger viewer’s choice. The Kid’s Choice Awards is an annual show that airs on the Nickelodeon cable channel, that honors the year’s biggest television, movie, and music acts, as voted by Nickelodeon viewers. Still there are no restrictions for the voter’s age.
The Force Awakens won the award in the category Favorite Movie.
The other contenders were:
Ant-Man
Avengers: Age of Ultron
Cinderella
Daddy’s Home
Jurassic World
Pitch Perfect 2
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 2
Dasiy Ridley and John Boyega were also nominated in the categories for Favorite Movie Actor and Favorite Movie Actress. They lost to Jennifer Lawrence – The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 2 and Will Ferrell – Daddy’s Home respectively.
It’s worth mentioning that both Daisy and John were the youngest actors in their categories. And just for comparison Boyega was going against the likes of Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Pratt and Robert Downey Jr. in his category.
We’re yet to hear more about these two. I forsee great furute for both of them. 🙂

ugh fuck jennifer lawrence, daisy ridley deserved that award, she didn’t just phone in a tired and boring performance like lawrence
“Yo Jenny, I’ma let you finish”
In your face, Hunger Games fans!
Cool… balance to the force? I agree with the kids for once!
it was the patricide that won them over
Katniss is the least likable hero in any franchise. So annoying.
what about bella swann from Twilight?
How can either of you hate those characters! I mean, they’re both such blank, bland, boring, ciphers that there’s literally nothing there to hate!
Ohh noooo, a bunch of kids liked Lennifer Lawrence. Why is everybody freaking out??
HEY KIDS! IN THE FUTURE, ALWAYS VOTE FOR STAR WARS……OR ELSE!!!

Do they still do slime thing? I remember seeing that they did a few years back which makes no sense since nobody watching it at this point probably has any clue at all where it originated from.
“Do they still do slime thing? I remember seeing…”
Never thought I’d feel old at 33. Congrats. 🙂
At least Mickey is still around but they really haven’t done anything with YCDTOTV since it went off the air.
The KCA is fucking rigged. They don’t even handpick the results (unless it’s a Nickelodeon property, which of course always wins). It’s all top-4 nonsense based on ticket sales. Take KCA results with a grain of salt, especially since most kids don’t even answer honestly. A lot of them go “I don’t know any of these so I’ll pick the one I KNOW the most instead of the one I like the most”. Especially in actor categories. No kid cares about who acted in their favorite movie, unless it’s a name they heard on TV or something (which is probably why Will Farrell beat out John).
You are very, very angry about 1) An awards show 2) An awards show for NIckelodeon viewers.
